URGES NUDISM
FOR MORALITY

LOS ANGELES, July 25. (U.P.)

Nudism was strongly advocated today at the American Progressive Chiropractic convention in session here by Dr. Durward Raymond Parrett, Houston, Tex.

Dr. Parrett declared morals of the human race will be vastly improved when nudism is accepted generally.

"And when morals improve, disease of the mind and body will be improved proportionately," he added.

The word "ouch" may be stricken from the vocabulary of the future, Dr. W. G. Edwards, Reno, Nev., told delegates to the convention. He held that only a few generations will intervene before science has made pain painless.

Instead, Dr. Edwards declared, human brains will get "emotional warnings" that some part of the body is sustaining an injury.
